As explained in the paper, 3D technologies were traditionally limited to the production of prototypes. However, this research has established that since 2013, the possibilities of small-scale production and for value-added parts has made their appearance into commercialization. On a more specific novelty of this research, the paper has focused on the dynamics of strategic scope in attaining competitive advantage in 3D printing sector. The paper adopts a tripartite approach by looking at product and service scopes, geographic scope and scope of competencies to help readers understand the emerging dynamics in 3D printing sector.
